In fall 1889, George and Susan Dagg, farmers from Clarendon, Que., experienced paranormal activity.
The couple had three children of their own, and Dinah, an adopted 11-year-old orphan from Scotland.
Whenever Dinah was around, strange things – like spontaneous fires, objects flying around rooms and an empty rocking chair starting to move – occurred.
That year, 17 farmers and community leaders signed witness statements to declare they’d seen unusual things happen at the Dagg farm.
